Yes they are developer versions but should still be fine. Download the ones you need, but when the "you need silverlight" experience is triggered - you'll have to run the install manually.
We no longer expose the end-user runtimes for older versions...only the developer ones. The old ones are out there actually, but you'd have to follow the same manual simulation. So this is what you'd do if you were testing an upgrade from 2.0 to 3.0. 1 - download both the 2.0 and the 3.0 runtimes from the site below 2 - install the 2.0 runtime on your target box 3 - have the target box visit your application 4 - should see the "you need a new version" experience that you developed 5 - click on the install link 6 - cancel any download that pops up 7 - while your script is waiting to see if the upgrade install has occurred, run the 3.0 installer manually. 8 - script should now see the upgrade complete and either run the app or prompt for a browser restart, if needed. -th Tim Heuer | (602) 405-4567 | Microsoft Silverlight blog: http://timheuer.com/blog/ | twitter: @timheuer<http://twitter.com/timheuer> From: [email protected] [mailto:[email protected]] On Behalf Of Ross McKinnon Sent: Sunday, November 15, 2009 5:20 PM To: ozSilverlight Subject: RE: Old silverlight runtime installers Thanks for that Tim, but unfortunately we are trying to test our customised upgrade process and those links are to developer versions which don't play well when trying to test the upgrade process to the current version. The error message is "Your Silverlight developer components are out of date." As outlined originally with our custom upgrade experience, we need to ensure all previous versions provide a smooth upgrade experience. Does anyone know where the production/public versions of the old silverlight installs would be located?

It happened on both ie6 and ie7. The problem versions seem to be : - 2.0.31005.0 - 2.0.40115.0 I want to diagnose the problem further, and to start I would like to be able to install those versions on a test machine. However I don't seem to be able to find the installers on the web. I tried passing the relevant version numbers , eg http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkID=149156&v=2.0.31005.0 however it serves me up SL 3. Also, the problem doesn't surface if I do a simple default SL application, with AutoUpgrade=true. I am doing a custom upgrade experience. It might not be the cause, but I have autoUpgrade = false And I am using the following additional attributes above the default template: initParams onLoad AllowHtmlPopupWindow Windowless - false EnableRedrawRegions - false (I can remove this one it was just for testing) Splashscreensource onSourceDownloadProgressChanged I was going to test to see if any of these was the cause, but can't do it without first installing the older versions.
